Saving Uchiha starts from being the patriarch Uchiha Zongxian

Konoha Village, a flower shop in the mountains.

As the patriarch of the Yamanaka clan, Yamanaka Haiichi is not so poor that he relies on a flower shop to make money to support his family. This flower shop is an industry that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Yamanaka clan clan leaders. This is the third generation here, and the history of Konoha is less than 60 years!

The person who manages the flower shop on a daily basis is Yamanaka Kaiichi's wife. There is a young girl recruited to help in the shop. There is also a baby girl who has become a bit like a girl after attending the ninja school. She will help in the flower shop after school. By the way, I hugged my mother's arm and said private words such as "Sasuke-san in class is so handsome."

Yamanaka Haiichi was greatly shocked when he learned that his precious daughter had a crush at the ninja school. He took his good friend Nara to a bar to get drunk. After getting drunk, he cried in shame on the street. Fortunately, his good friend Nara Shikaku was very reliable. Before Yamanaka Haiichi could do something even more embarrassing, he directly used the shadow imitation technique to control him and quickly left the street.

Otherwise, many intelligence ninjas in the village may experience the disillusionment of their idols the next day!

"Oh! What will we do next!"

The gentle woman who was sitting behind the counter was thinking far away, as if she saw how "lively" the situation would be when her daughter got married in the future.

"jingle!"

The bell on the store door rang.

The woman put away her thoughts about the future and stood up, with a gentle smile on her face. She raised her eyes to look at the customers who walked into the store. What came in was a tall old man with long white hair hanging down to his head. There are two long red marks on the lower back and under the eyes. There are brown clothes inside the red long gown. There are wooden clogs on the feet, and the sound is clear and loud when walking.

"Old sir, what flowers do you need?"

The woman always felt that the old man in front of her looked familiar, but she got married not long after graduating from the ninja school. Her social circle was not wide. She checked the people she knew, but could not find out the identity of this old man. .

Of course, the little confusion in her mind didn't make her act uneasy.

"Just give me a bouquet of white chrysanthemums."

The man's voice was low, his expression was solemn, and coupled with the request... the smile on the woman's face faded, and her expression suddenly became very solemn. She selected a bouquet of white chrysanthemums, packed it and sent it over. The man didn't have anything extra. After paying the money, he left.

Looking at the back of the flying white hair, the woman suddenly remembered what happened many years ago when she was a student of the ninja school. Not long after the end of World War II, the principal of the ninja school invited the famous [Sannin] ] Came to the school to speak to the students.

At that time, she had seen [-]% similar backs. What she saw in the backs of the past was flying confidence, but the backs of today seemed to have gone through the vicissitudes of time.

"Master Jiraiya?"

The woman's eyes widened in shock.

Finally remembering this important person who had not been back to Konoha for a long time, she hurriedly asked the girl who was helping to look after the store. She hurriedly went out and returned to the Yamanaka clan's clan, bringing Lord Jiraiya to Hana. I told the elder of the clan about buying flowers in the store. The elder did not dare to neglect and went to find Yamanaka Haiichi in person.

then,

Only then did the senior officials of Konoha learn the news that Jiraiya, one of the [Three Ninjas], had returned to the village.

"Jiraiya is back!"

Qiudao Qifeng sat on the large office chair and sighed in a complicated tone.

Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Kaiichi didn't know what to say, and Hinata Hizashi and Aburame Shiwei, who felt that the matter had nothing to do with them, had nothing to say, so they had to respond with silence.

Aburame Zhiwei has returned from the front line,

After the war on the front line ended, he did not join the mission organized by Sogen. Yushiguro could just represent their clan, and he and Akimichi Choza returned to the village with the news of victory.

"Now that Jiraiya is back, it seems that I, the acting Hokage, can finally relieve myself of my burden." Akimichi Tifū showed an expression that seemed to be relieved, but everyone was still silent and couldn't agree with him. "Hokage-sama, you are right. I also think it's time for you to go home and take care of yourself, right?" Nara Shikaku and the others have their brains broken.

Looking at the silent crowd, Qiudao Qifeng sighed softly. He also understood why everyone was silent.

Isn't he himself in a complicated mood?

What it's like to be the Hokage can only be understood by sitting on it. Akimichi Tofaze doesn't know how to describe the feeling of being the Hokage, but he somewhat understands why Sarutobi clings to the authority of the Hokage. Reluctant to let go. ?

"Shikaku, let's talk! What should we do next? We can't just sit here and do nothing."

Of course,

Akimichi Tofaze turned his attention to Nara Shikaku, who was the 'think tank'.

Nara Shikaku felt a little headache, but fortunately, as a smart person, how could he not know that the trouble would eventually fall on him?After two seconds of silence, he reviewed the prepared draft, and then said: "Jiraiya-sama returned to the village alone. None of the ANBU sent out to find Jiraiya-sama came back. This matter... ····I’m afraid it’s not as simple as we thought.”

Qiu Daocheng was stunned for a moment.

He really didn't notice these details.

"Is there something else going on in this matter?" Akimichi Tifeng frowned. He was not familiar with Jiraiya, a disciple of Sarutobi. His understanding of Jiraiya was limited to one of the three ninjas, who was extremely powerful. He has a high prestige in the village.

"Jiraiya-sama... he is a bit casual."

Nara Shikaku thought carefully and chose the subtle adjective "casual".

"casual?"

Akimichi Torifu frowned so much that he could pinch a fly, "You mean he...may refuse to take over as the Fifth Hokage?" After so many years of dealing with the Nara clan, Akimichi Torifu has also tempered his skills. The ability to understand the euphemistic words of these smart people.

He was a little unbelievable and said:

"Is this Hokage? Is there anyone who would refuse to become Hokage?"

From the perspective of old people like Akimichi Takafou, no one can resist the temptation to become Hokage. Back then, their group of friends, even though they knew that Sarutobi was the most promising disciple of the Nidaime-sama, they all still dreamed of it. They all want to become Hokage.

A stubborn guy like Danzo probably never gave up his dream of becoming Hokage until the moment he died.

Therefore,

He simply couldn't understand that someone would reject the position of Hokage.

"I think we still need to explain this matter to Lord Jiraiya first and ask him clearly about Lord Jiraiya's attitude so that we can make some preparations. Otherwise, if Lord Jiraiya refuses, we will have to sit down. Wax." Nara Shikaku suggested.

"I agree."

Hinata and Hinata made a positive statement at this time.

"I have some understanding of Jiraiya-senpai's temperament. It's best to ask about this kind of thing face to face and never make assumptions."

Akimichi Tifeng was stunned. Even Hinata and Hinata said the same thing. Is Sarutobi's apprentice so weird?Rejecting the easily available position of Hokage... This is really not a lie.

"Haiyi, Zhiwei, what do you think?"

"I agree with Shikaku's idea."

Yamanaka Kaiichi expressed his trust in Nara Shikaku. The three Ino, Deer, and Butterflies families are in the same spirit, and this is no joke.

"I have no opinion!"

Aburame Shimi's attitude is also very clear. He and Jiraiya are not familiar with each other, but he and Namikaze Minato are very good friends, and the Yondaime respects his teacher very much, even if he complains about his teacher from time to time It's unreliable. She just likes to go shopping in custom shops, and she wants to drag him along with her. The master and apprentice are almost killed by the furious Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

But he still remembered the deep respect mixed in Namikaze Minato's helpless smile.

So he was quite sure,

Jiraiya is a respectable elder.

Therefore, he did not object to Jiraiya succeeding as the Fifth Hokage.

"In that case... Shikaku, Hiashi, please go see Jiraiya and ask him what his attitude is. If he aspires to be the Hokage, then we can start making preparations. , If he is no different than this, then Tsunade should ask the ANBU to hurry up, it has been too long and there is no result, it is too delayed."

Nara Shikaku smiled helplessly,

Tsunade is not that easy to find. This famous 'big fat sheep' seemed to have owed a large amount of gambling money at the beginning of this year. In order to avoid the creditors who were chasing the debt, he had been trying his best to hide his whereabouts, and therefore gave him a lot of trouble. The ANBU caused huge trouble.

It was easy to collect information about Tsunade in the past because she never deliberately concealed her whereabouts.

But if Tsunade intends to hide, it will not be so easy for the ANBU to find the Konoha Princess who is proficient in medical ninjutsu.

"We're going right now."

Hinata Hiashi nodded in agreement.

It was just an errand to meet and ask Jiraiya for a few words. There was nothing to shirk. His mentality was similar to Aburame Shimi's. As long as he wasn't someone like the Sandaime, he didn't really care who came to be the Hokage. Anyway, he didn't care much. The position of Hokage of this generation is destined to have nothing to do with Hinata.

As for the future,

That's something people in the future should consider.

Hinata Hiashi and Nara Shikaku left the Hokage Building. Based on the information sent by the ANBU responsible for tracking Jiraiya, they ran straight on the treetops on the roof and arrived at the cemetery. They saw the man in front of the tomb where the Sandaime Hokage was buried. A tall man.

"Senior Jiraiya."

"Master Jiraiya."

Hinata Hiashi and Nara Shikaku stepped forward and greeted the man.

"Oh! Aren't these the Hyuga clan leader and Shikaku?" Jiraiya turned around. He didn't see any sadness on his face. Instead, he wore a cheerful smile and greeted the two of them with a smile. "Long time no see!"
